Colin Mcrae Dirt (PC)
Installed and played this incredible looking game last night. A few minutes in, the fuse blew in my pc's plug!
 It has never happened before in the year I have had the pc, so is this a coincidence or are the very high level demands of this game just too much??  |

Yeah make sure that you don't have too much stuff connected the same fuse. So if you have 1000W PSU and some other stuff on that fuse let's say about 500W more you can do the math how big fuse you need to power all that ...

Played it again last night and it was fine.
Not easy, but a damn good game. |

glad it works now. I had similar issues some time ago when I started to run Folding@home the fuse (10A) blew every two months until I realized that I had overload that was causing the fuse to blow. I had my PC around 650W total, old freezer (1000W) and fridge (700W) and some house lights. I was about 250W overloading it so I just moved my PC's power lines to another plug that wasn't using that fuse. So now I don't have the overload here and all works just fine.
